2. How One Tweet Blew Up
That tweet from Lamb Chop went viral. For a minute, Lamb Chop was everywhere on Twitter. Retweets and followers piled up faster than Mallory could have imagined, which was probably the best publicity the lamb had enjoyed in decades. “Lamb Chop has always been a liberal,” Mallory explained in an interview with the Jewish Journal. “Her theory is, first they came for the blacks, then they came for the Jews…and Lamb Chop, you should know, is Jewish…and if nobody stands up, one day they’ll come for the puppets.” Mallory clearly has her mother’s sense of humor. The day of Trump’s inauguration, a photo popped up online of Lamb Chop crying.
